Beam Global announced that the City of Los Angeles Streets LA Division placed another order for solar-powered EV ARC? charging systems, their large order thus far. The off-grid systems will be deployed across several metro and valley locations and used to fuel the City?s growing fleet of electric vehicles.

The systems were purchased through the California Department of General Services (DGS) Contract #1-22-61-16, which serves to simplify the government procurement process and make select solutions available statewide at the best negotiated pricing. The StreetsLA EV ARC? charging systems each fit in a standard parking space without taking up valuable parking and are equipped with two Enel X JuiceBox® Pro EV charging stations.

Because they are off-grid, systems are deployed with no electrical work, no construction and no utility bill, reducing the City?s costs through avoided construction, electrical upgrades, operational disruptions and ongoing utility bills. 100% powered by renewable energy, EV ARC? systems generate and store their own clean electricity and deliver that electricity to power the City?s EVs day or night, and during inclement weather and power outages.

Flood proof to 9.5 feet and wind-rated to 160 mph, the product improves the City?s energy resiliency and disaster preparedness. The charging systems are transportable and can be relocated as charging patterns emerge and change. The City of Los Angeles?

Electric Vehicle Master Plan aims to have 123,000 EV chargers by 2030.
